    Thordic- spud guns might be focused on distance, but check out the second page...it has ALOT to do with distance. the pics, the pictures of the distance the spuds went...they went through formica board thats a half inch thick! HAHA im sorry but i think i got you burnt there. no offense

    anyways, i dont think i will make one. but on a side note, you shouls make a dump chamber with PVC thats triple wrapped with KEVLAR. something sort of like a nitr tank, fiber wrapped...dump chambers with pressures of 2500 psi, thats very dangerous but i know theres a way around it. and as for the golf ball, im not serious about the lowflying aircraft, but hitting a stopsign might be fun. i wouldnt recommend hitting a stopsign, just incase the bacon squad decides to show up in the blues.

    and, before i get arthritus from writing this mini-novel, i must comment...i think a golfball would go WAAYYY further than a spud.
    This Event Really Did happen On the West Coast Of The U.S.A. In WWII the Japanese Constructed Balloons With Bombs On Them. They Would Float Them Into The U.S.A. Through The Pacific Airstream That Crossed The pacific.

        these are crazy spud cannons:
        bolt action, electronically activated, aluminum construction (this is a combustion type spud gun):



        this is a pnuematic spud cannon, 20 ft long.. meaning it uses a dump chamber filled with compressed air (the dump chamber is under the 20 ft barrel, hidden beneath the wood) second picture is the 20 ft spud cannon, basically vaporizing a large watermellon. picture is 1/30th of a second after impact. spud was going 300-500 mph.

                                            Good to know that somone of Tom's status seeks "relief" from a sport he helped create. A sport now ruled by a single patent.

                                                Potato gun got tested this weekend, distance was impressive, but could be much better. I plan on enlarging the dump chamber and trying again...

                                                Note to all, valve, although rated for a 600 PSI working pressure, leaks at 600 PSI. 550 PSI was needed to stop leak.

                                                Also, never forget to glue the barrel to the PVC adapter. Flying potato good, flying barrel bad.

                                                            hah

                                                            yeah i made one of them a while ago also.. we finished off the potatos and got the bright idea of using other things so we figured out that we could use the plastic bag for a wad and putting MUD into it and letting loose... needless to say it was soo funny from then on all we used was the mud shot.. by the way ours was the fire kind.. made with PVC piping..

                                                            hint use grill starter for ignition..

                                                            fire procedures for us..

                                                            1 put spud in launcher
                                                            2 ram spud home
                                                            3 unscrew the back and fill with favorite aerosol wait a few seconds(so that it isnt all wet) and then screw back on...
                                                            4 get in firing position
                                                            5 hit the little red button
                                                            6 watch the destruction..
